Simple video editing with MPV

MPV is one of my favorite open source projects. It's a simple-looking video player with an enormous amount of features while also being highly extensible through the lua programming language.

MPV-splice Script

MPV-splice is a script that allows you to use MPV as a video editor. You set the start and end timings for fragments, and then the script cuts the video and concatenates the fragments.

I made a fork of it to extend it's abilities.

• I added an option to automatically upload the video (to any platform, but the default config works for Streamable).
• I added an option to reencode the video, making the timings frame perfect. By default, the script does not reencode the video, allowing for extremely fast results.
• I fixed the editing of online videos. The script will only download the selected portions of the video, which allows you to cut out fragments of even hours long YouTube videos for example.

Another useful script I forked is 8mb, which compresses your video to 8mb, changing it's FPS and resolution to appropriate values.
